Bobo ako sa math. Pero alam ko more or less, mga around 200 ang gumraduate sa AB noong 2007 ayon sa inisip kong bilang ng mga tao... AB pa lang un. andaming college sa UST... andaming ibang university... bakit ganun? bakit sa pinagtatrabahuhan ko ako lang ang nasa batch ko? anung chances meron na sa libo-libong estudyanteng gumraduate noong 2007 eh ako lang ang nasa trabaho ko ngayon?! apparently, malaki ang chance na mangyari un DAHIL NANGYAYARI SA KIN UN NGAYON!!! tangna, ako pinakabata sa bwakananginang trabaho ko... kahit nun huling trabaho ko eh... well last time meron naman isa, pero nonetheless!! pinapatanda ako ng maaga ng mga trabahong to eh... ang lungkot sa bwakanaginang trabaho lalo na kung wala kang maka-relate... lahat sila ang problema either pamilya, pera, o renta, o kung anu anu pa... wala akong makausap na ang problema eh nananalo ang LAL kahit na wala silang silbi, na natatalo pa rin ang Welcoat kahit ganun un lineup nila, na ang hina na ni Shadow Priest sa 6.49, na matatapos na ang Ysabella at ndi ko pa alam kung anu na ang nangyayari... tapos isang tao na nga lang nakakausap ko na nag-eefort magstay minsan after ng shift nya para maki chika (babae, feeling ko mejo nakakaramdam din ng kakulangan sa kausap dahil ganun din sitwasyon sa umaga) ng mga pangyayari sa klase nya nun araw na un, eh pinagbawalan pang magstay sa mei station ko after ng shift nya... lunch ko, mag-isa lang ako... kukuha ako ng tubig sa pantry habang mei mga tao, tumatahimik cla at nagchchange topic... pota... ang lungkot eh... asan na ba un mga nagtatrabahong gumraduate? labo naman... apply naman kayo sa min... hassle lang sched ng onti (2pm-11pm) at maiipit ka lang ng onti sa sobrang strikto nila sa attendance, pero easy lang naman trabaho eh... ang pinakamahirap na eh un umintindi ng Koreano... ang lungkot kasi sa bwakananginang trabaho pag wala kang kausap kundi un computer eh...


Di na ko makatulog... parating na un magiging kabiyak ko sa kalungkutan: un PSP... xa ang magiging eternal friend ko against boredom and shit sa trabahong un... xa rin ang magpapanatili sa kin sa trabaho nang at least 3 months dahil babayaran ko pa xa...


2000pesoses... nararamdaman ko na ang hirap ng pagbudget... sabi ko ayaw ko magdiet ever, dahil ayaw ko binabantayan ang kinakain ko... pero ngaun kasi sabi ng wallet ko eh tumigil tigil ako ng gastos at magbaon na lang eh... oh well, i think it would work out for me well kun magbaon na nga lang ako.. pero kun walang mabaon, pota hassle... sama ko talaga magutom... gusto ko itulog kanina eh... wala lang chance... haay... buhay!!!! sana manalo na ko sa lotto!! titigilan ko na lahat ng to at magtatayo na lang ako ng jolibee sa antipolo!!!

...cool video, sangria, salary, and PSP...

wanna see a cool video?check this out:

www.powerunleashed.com.ph

nope, its not a virus or some shit that will ruin your system... tinamad lang ako magconvert... its a video by my cousin and the company that he works for... setting: tondo manila.. makers: Filipino. i need to say that because you won't think of it as true if you watch the video first...


last night, my flight attendant tita made Sangria for us... its a mix of red wine, sprite and some fruits... sarap... and for long sessions... she finally decides to learn mixes for us to enjoy...


my first month salary is for 320/day... yup, i know that sucks, but my trainer told me that they do that because of the bozos who apply for 1st month's check, then leave the company... so they did it this way: 320/day for 1st month, then 10500 basic next month, 2500 allowance, 3000 attendance bonus, then after 5 month, one gets the training allowance of 5000... eto pa ego booster: sabi ng tatay ko un labandera ng kumpare nya, 360/day ang rate... o di ba? graduate ka ng philo pero meron katulong mas malaki pa kumita seio... anywei, eto pa ang cool: 3200 ang unang salary ko sa company nun dec 25... ang sumunod kong salary came ngaung jan10... at ito ay tumatagingting na 2000pesoses... oo, 2000 pesoses ang dapat bumuhay sa kin til jan25... pota tlga... ngaun ko lang naramdaman ang kakulangan... syet...


si ryan ni sarah nsa singapore... sabi nya meron daw 0% interest na psp dun kumpleto package.. dito kasi 0% interest nga, pero unit lang... mga 13K pa kun package... sabi ko papabili na lang ako sa kanya, tpos byaran ko na lang...tapos sabi ko sana pula... nun saturday aun na, nasa mall xa at oo na lang ang nasabi ko... nag-aaway kasi sa isip ko si hiya at si kaadikan... pero aun na xa, pagdating nya dito para akong si sarah dahil mei pasalubong din ako... hehe... at dahil jan, ndi ako magaabsent sa susunod na 3 buwan para matiwasay kong mabayaran ang PSP na dala ng kaadikan ko...

...time/work, merger, and NBA..

2PM - 11PM... ok lang naman sa kin eh.. kaso ala nang gimik time... kinda a good thing pa rin naman kasi i don't get to spend much... kaso miss ko si che... less time to see each other, less time to spend time with each other... i can't even watch a movie with her on weekdays to take her mind off the hellacious 4th year work... the best thing i could do with her was a lunch date at icebergs, but that didn't turn out too well too, dahil natae ako, and left her alone for about 10-15mins while a stupid clerk was real slow on the "express" lane and i had to take a dump...

pag nagbabasa ako ng dyaryo, parating sports at comics lang binabasa ko..kasi dun minsan mei magandang balita pa... sa front page kasi kun ndi namatay, bago problema lang meron eh... anyway, ang pinakamatunog na sports balita ngayon eh ang merger ng UAAP at NCAA... payag na ang NCAA, ayaw pa ng UAAP, though ang nagpropose ng move ay ang host ng UAAP next year, ang UP, na sya namang magcecelebrate ng 100years of existence... gusto ng NCAA kasi for more competitiveness, ayaw ng UAAP dahil tulad ng sabi ni Coach Carter, "they are student-athletes. student comes first." Personally, gusto ko, para humaba un tournament, pero yeah, considering mga estudyante sila... but then again, after being classmates with Derrik Hubalde and Jojo Duncil, who were the main gunners for USTe at one point in their lives, I don't think it's the athletes' priority to actually study... save for Dylan and maybe Chris Tiu and TY Tang... but hey, that's just me... another reason for UAAP junking it is that basketball is not the only sport there is and that the tradition of the UAAP and NCAA are going to be alienated... true basketball is not the only sport, but hey, maybe with this many competition, someone might actually challenge UST for the overall position... how many years in a row has UST been holding that title? 38? i don't know... And i want to see San Sabestian trying to do their "Go Baste" cheer in front of us... tingnan ko lang kun ndi magkariot. tangna nila... mga jologs..

I don't get to watch NBA anymore... the last 2 games I watched were blowouts... i had a good game once, the denver-san antonio game... but i didn't even see the whole game... bullshit talaga si manny(see previous post)... even if they show it on ABC 5 in the evening, i wouldn't be able to see it too because of my freakin schedule.. anyway, the only dose of nba i have right now is the internet... i can't go through multiply at the office even if i'm just surfing all day because of company fuckin policy... so i read through the recaps of the close games... most of the games i don't get to read about are from, of all teams, LA Lakers... i never liked that team..  they were the team to beat once, but since shaq left kobe, they have to compete for the 8th spot out in the west... now they have a joke for a lineup... good addition was derek fisher,  but still, they need a big man and turiaf and bynum can't fill that void up.. or so i thought... bynum is performing like a monster and the lenovo stats in nba.com, the stat which measures the best 5 man combination in a team, shows LA as having the most number of combinations that play well together... i'm just baffled at how a joke of a team can perform that well... one answer might be Andrew Bynum... the Heat? well, i'm just pissed everyday... the 2004 world champs are now at the bottom of the east... i'm almost wishing Pat Riley stepping down, and Shaq being traded for a better, younger, less injury prone big man... trade away ricky davis for a more consistent player, and why not sign earl boykins since they're not using smush parker anyway... the team just isn't clicking, wade's trying his best but is still playing hurt... i could see stan van gundy laughing at pat riley right now... riley may be the guy who made the team look the way it looks right now, but stan was the guy who made players out of those people... What about the blazers? they won 13 straight, and lost, but won 2 straight, i think, coming off that loss... and those without the hyped-up greg oden... scary thought for next season.. but let's see how blazers are going to perform against the good teams... Chicago? another disappointment... that is almost the same team that was hyped up last year to win or challenge the east, loaded a bit on young talent (noah, gray), but still is just a couple of games ahead of the heat... the bobcats always need a jordan visit for them to perform well... memphis is a good roster, but i don't know what's wrong with them... they just have that habit of losing... sixers pulled together a string of wins, but they also have a joke as a lineup...  but then again, they're doing better than the heat... and the wizards are winning, but they're not fun to watch unless the loudmouth agent zero is playing... i want him there for his buzzer beaters and to back his trash up... they're Boston game was a mess for him when it came to predictions...


I need to bet on NBA odds... i know i can win regular season games now even if i don't get to watch... anyone who can help me out with this?

...work, manny pacquiao, and my bike...

A couple of weeks in, yet still, i find it hard to understand Koreans... it's hard to teach people who you can't understand... i can't understand their English, maybe that's why they applied in the first place, but c'mon... i could give them a Benson's Eclair candy, let them try to peel off the wrapper off it para lang dumerecho muna ng onti mga dila nila... they can't seem to open their mouths... my batchmate has 5 calls at most in a day for the morning shift... for the afternoon shift, that's the least calls i have to make in a day.. i make around 9-11 on average... and to think i earn as much as she does... and its not that much... anyway, i have to live with this for about another couple of months... my resume won't look better if i put this as one of my previous work experiences...


Every year i win in the family bingo.. this year, i won a bike.. and although we do have a motorcycle, i have to like the bike because it's mine... and by liking it, i have to use it... and i tell you, it is excercise... man... hopefully it's enough to keep me in shape (circle).. hehe...


there are 2 channels that i watch on my tv: Basketball TV and Jack TV... now, from what i heard or read, this is the story of it: Home and Sky cable belong to one of the Lopezes of ABSCBN... Solar Entertainment inked an exclusive deal with GMA 7... Manny Pacquiao inked an exclusive deal with Solar Sports.. so we can conclude that Manny Pacquiao's fights won't be shown on ABS CBN.. result: as soon as the year ends and all the contracts for Solar Entertainment(BTV, JackTV, 2nd Avenue, C/S, ETC, Solar Sports) have expired, Sky and Home will no longer renew those contracts.. instead, they offered new channels to hopefully fill the gaps left by Solar channels... true or not, i blame it on Pacquiao and the Lopez greed... now i and some other basketball freaks have to suffer... at least ETC, 2nd avenue, and C/S have moved to local channels (SBN 21, RJTV 29, and RPN 9 respectively, for those who are not aware yet, all these channels can be accessed on local free TV or even cable TV, around channel 60+ siguro)... Balls hardly fills in for BTV.. i lost my dose of NBA basketball... Balls can't even show NFL!!!!! what do i care about US college ballgames?! i don't have THEIR school spirits... National Geographic is ok, they need not replace Solar Sports and my occassional dose of Poker with Discovery Channel... Maxxx offers crap like cartoons with bad drawing that in no way compares to South Park, and offers wrestling of my Grandpa... and they offer a bunch of other crap you won't really enjoy... Velvet is a channel i don't understand, but they did show a Justin Timberlake concert yesterday that seemingly boosted their ratings somewhow because my sister tuned in to it, even though she wasn't watching it... AXN beyond is redundant. bad trip.. now i have to look for dvd series because there's nothing good on tv anymore unless there are movies on star, hbo, or cinemax...


i miss wrestling, basketball, poker, and all the cartoons Jack offers... damn you Lopez.. damn you Manny...



...ayaw ni Tring ng birds...

1/6/07 Surprise birthday party for Mommy Puch of the First Family... Ilang buwan na rin nagpplano ng family dinner, di naman matuloy tuloy... pero dahil birthday ng ina, nagkaron ng pagkakataon... supposed to be ang plan is "doughnut and coffee" party na magaganap sana ng 5pm... kaso kinailangang magstall ng ama dahil mei nasa bahay pa... si nico 3pm pa lang eh nasa Glorietta na... ako 5pm dumating sa mismong place... at nsabi sa kin na ndi ako pde makita dahil masisira ang surprise... demmit... nywei, salamat sa timezone, nagkaron ako ng pampalipas oras... isang oras naman ang tinagal ng 100pesos sa The Fast and the Furious na ndi ko alam panu magsave.. sayang tuloy kotse ko...

ayan na, around 6pm nagkita kita kami (sayang lang at wla si Ate Patring)... umupo sa paligid habang pinapanood ang magsyotang nagdadate sa pamamagitan ng Ad Hoc ng Tekken 5 sa PSP... sabi ko kei nico dpat bilhan nya na ng PSP gerpren nya... investment un... instead na gumastos ka ng at least 500 pesos everytime lumalabas kayo, pag bumili ka ng PSP eh pdeng upo na lang kayo sa quadri ng magkatabi o magkatalikod, tapos laro kayo Tekken... hehe...

sinurprays pa rin naman namin si Ate Puch, buti na lang malabo ang mata nya at ndi nya kami nakitang papunta sa likod nya... since dinner time na, ndi na kami matuloy sa doughnut at coffee party... dinner na lang... sa Friday's kami kumain kung san namin nakilala si Jupert or Jupi... isa xang waiter na bading ata na merong belt bag na gustong gusto ni Ate Len... sabi namin double celebration, birthday ni Ate Puch at Tringgay... nanonood ka ba ng flintstones? kung oo, chances are, nakita mo na ang grinder nilang baboy na nakapwesto sa ilalim ng sink... parang ganun ang trabaho ko tuwing kumakain sa kahit saan (except pag kasama ko mga kaklase ko... mga baboy din un eh..hehe...), kaya kahit parang naghehello na un jebs ko, ayaw kong ndi ubusin ang pagkain.. pero natira ako ng mais at pasta (2 strand at 2 pirasong manok) para di naman isipin na patay gutom ako... nakita rin namin sa Friday's si John Estrada at ang syota nyang Miss ng something sa isang pageant... kinantahan din kami ng TGIF waiters ng kantang ndi mo maaalala kahit tono... basta mei palakpak sila... meron ice cream na mei kanila at sa paligid ng plate ay mei "Happy birthday" na nakasulat at ang panulat nila ay Caramel... Birthday ni "Pooch" at "Kring"... di na kami nagreklamo... baka ulitin un kanta eh...


tapos lakad ulit... walang kamatayang pichur at pichur... mei shop, Philosophy. damit ang benta nila.. sabi ko anlabo ng mei ari nun... ang hirap hirap maghanap ng libro ng philo tapos gagawa xa ng shop na Philosophy ang pangalan tapos di man lang xa magbenta ng libro. naisip ko tuloy ang mei ari nun mei matinding galit sa mga estudyante ng Philo (malamang taga-UP) tapos naisip nyang gumawa ng shop na "Philosophy" para pasukin ng mga philo at bumili sila ng damit, para umangkop sa nais na porma ng mei ari. pero mehn, ang mahal. pambakla pa. o bi.

matapos pakinabangan ni Ate Len ang GC's nya sa Fully Booked, lakad ulit kami patungong Cupcakes. doon natikman namin ang asukal and sugar icing cupcake na sobrang tamis(ate puch), ang oreo cupcake(nico), ang blueberry peanut butter cupcake(me), ang strawberry and pistacio cupcake(tring), ang chocolate and icing cupcake(kuya ags), at ang banana and sumthing cupcake(ate len)... dito rin sa lugar na ito nakita namin si Beth Tamayo, na kumain din sa lugar na yon, si Ali Peek, na anlaking tao, at si Chris Tiu, na muntik nang tilian ni Tring (nanigas na xa at kinapitan kami ni nico, at mejo patili na... malakas ata ang pagkakasabi nya ng "SI CHRIS TIU!!" kaya napatingin ng ilang beses un tao)... Best friend namin noon ang tubig...


matindihang pichuran ulit habang naglalakad kami bago umuwi... pichur sa mga bells, pichur sa parang monkey bars, pichur sa parang diving board, at pichur sa kun saan saan... pichurs na ndi nakuha ng camera ko dahil namatay na ang phone ko. leche. at mga pichur na habambuhay muna bago lumabas dahil ang mei mga hawak ng pichur ay si Lentot at si Tring na forever and a day bago magpost ng pichurs... nawa'y mabago ang trend...


ayun, tulog na lang inabot ko dito sa bahay, tpos na ang mga happenings at antok na ko dahil ndi ako maxadong nakatulog nun nakaraang gabi... masaya, kasi almost complete kaming family, at kagabi lang kami nagkasama samang muli...
